    In my experience with cases stuck in dies, it’s the area in front of the web towards the base that usually binds in the LGS die if you’re light on lube. If you want a very good case lube that is...

    Snowgrass With that screw jammed in the expander ball has to be high up in the resizing die. Mechanically, if the expander ball is too far up, that is, up in the neck area of the die, then the...

    It pays to clean a new FLR die with solvent before using. Manufacturers usually add a protective coating.

    I have had the same experiences, with Redding dies, they can be not so forgiving, tighter tolerances. Cheap & cheerful -----Lees dies you almost have to try to jam cases. So Well done! Kroil is...

    Squirt some lanoline case lube or WD40 down through the top of the die as well. Works a treat with Hornady F/L dies. Didn't even have to drill and tap the case.

    Use a hex head bolt. Select a socket that just fits over the base of the case diameter and rests on the bottom of the die. Add some sort of strong washer between bolt and socket. Hold dies in soft...
